Summary

The investigators believe that these information forms, exercise forms and video recordings that provide patient education will contribute to the collaborative approach of the patient and the clinician, the patient's participation in the treatment, the expectation of treatment and results, and their autonomy. The contribution of patient information forms, exercise forms and video recordings, which have become very important in recent years, to different degrees of results will be questioned.

Detailed description

Written and visual information can affect outcome measurements in health care. In addition to verbal information and guidance, written and visual information is also frequently recommended. This information increases patients' clinical knowledge, communication, and satisfaction and reduces potential anxiety. Forms have been created in various medical fields to inform the patient about medications, applications, and possible risks, and there are many studies on these instruction forms. The effectiveness of patient information forms and exercise forms in physiotherapy and occupational therapy has gained importance in recent years. It is used in areas such as athlete rehabilitation, impingement syndrome, and osteoarthritis. However, only one study was found, especially in the field of hand rehabilitation. The aim of planning this study is to examine the contribution of patient information forms, exercise forms, and video recordings to the clinical and functional results of patients who suffered hand and forearm injuries as a result of a work accident.
